Missouri latest state to consider raising speed limit By Ken Leiser

TODAY

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Today is Friday, Jan. 2, the second day of 2015. There are 363 days left in the year.

ST. LOUIS, Mo. — Steve Bruns drives a lot — whether long commutes, monthly drives to Urbana, Ill., or a periodic trip to Houston to visit family. Bruns, of St. Charles, Mo., says he's a"big fan" of the rural interstate speed limits in Oklahoma and Texas, which topoutat75mph and 85 mph, respectively. Back home in Missouri, the rural limit is still 70 mph outside heavily

TODAY INHISTORY On Jan. 2,2006,12 miners died in a methane gas explosion at the Sago Mine in West Virginia. One miner, Randal McCloy Jr., was eventually rescued.

ONTHIS DATE In1788, Georgia became the fourth state to ratify the U.S. Constitution. In 1893, the U.S. Postal Service issued its first commemorative stamp to honor the World's Columbian Expedition and the quadricentennial of Christopher Columbus' voyage. In1960, Sen. John F. Kennedy of Massachusetts launched his successful bid for the presidency.

populated areas. A Missouri lawmaker wants to change that. State Rep. Mike Kelley has introduced a measure seeking to increasethetop speed on Missouri's rural interstates and freeways to 75 mph. "I would gladly accept that," Bruns said in an interview. Kelley, R-Lamar, said 17 other states — including neighboringOklahoma and Kansas — already allow people to scoot alongrural interstates at 75 mph or

higher, and he thinks Missouri could handle the increase. It's the latestnudge toincrease top rural interstate speeds at a time when traKc fatalities are falling. He said he already sees peopledriving 75 mph on Interstate 44, which passes through his district. "I think there is a point wherepeoplefeelsafe,and that is what they are going to drive no matter what the speed limitis," Kelley said. ''We have come to a point on

interstates that that is the speedmost peopletravel." Ifhe's successful, Missouri would join 13 other states that have increased rural speed limits on interstate highways since 2005. Kelley introduced similar legislation last year, but it wasn't successtul. Gary Biller, president of the National Motorists Association, agrees with Kelly's observation about human nature. States that have done their own traKc surveys, he said, found thatthe average motor-

ist on rural interstates drives in the low to mid-70 mph range,regardlessoftheposted speed."It kind of indicates that drivers don't usually pay a whole lot of attention to the number posted on the sign," he said. Still, there are enough drivers who consciously stick to theposted speeds that it creates potential conflict points between the majority and those traveling slower than the prevailing speed, Biller said.

The Observer

OUR VIEW

rea n som.e 1 e in own La Grande will never be Las Vegas. And it doesn't want to be a 24/7 bright lights gambling mecca, with all the fun and corruption that implies. But over the course of the past few years, the small city in Northeast Oregon has become a livelier place to live. That's causefor celebration as2015 beginsto unfold. The New Year's Eve Block Party, conducted in bone-chilling cold, with its ball drop and other festivities, is the latest in a series of events that is making the sleepy Northeast Oregon town come alive. Coupled with the Eastern Oregon Beer Festival, the Eastern Oregon Film Festival, the Celtic Festival and Highland Games, the Living Nativity and Crazy Days, along with old favorites like the Fourth of July fireworks show and the Union County Fair, La Grande is no longer a place where the only thing exciting to do is watch haircuts at the local barber shop. Add to that all the events ofI'ered at Eastern Oregon University in theater, arts and music as well as the happenings at the Art Center at the Old Library, and La Grande has many more options for entertainment and enlightenment. Credit should go to La Grande Main Street Downtown for it's part in the revival. The organization tasked with bringing economic stimulus to the community has done much to facilitate the first New Year's Eve Block Party and the beer festival. The two events show promise to bring people to town from a wide area. As these events grow over the years, more people will come to town, stay overnight, eat in the restaurants, stay in the motels, do some shopping and generally stimulate an economy just now waking up fiom the dimming efI' ectsofthe GreatRecession. According to its website, La Grande Main Street Downtown's mission is "to create an inviting, sustainable downtown rooted in La Grande's history and culture, providing a vital center for commercial and community activities." The local organization is part of the National Main Street Program, which is a subsidiary of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. According to the website,'LGMSD works closely with its members, downtown businesses and local organizations to strengthen existing business, to expand opportunities for new businesses and to plan events and activities that improve the quality of life in downtown La Grande." With the addition of the beer festival and the New Year's Eve Block Party, LGMSD is playing a key role in bringing more life to this sleepy burg. The new ideas are welcome, and much credit is due to those who work behind the scenes to make these events a reality.

T — brings a sense of reflection and

provides an opportunity to look ahead. It is no different for us here in the The Observer newsroom. Every year, The Observer puts together its year-end special section. Basically, the section is a short,to-the-pointoverview ofsome of the best stories and significant events thatoccurred locally.W e add some state stuff in there as well, such as the passing of recreational marijuana, but the focus is always on the local news year. The 2014 edition was printed this week and it provided the reflection for us in the newsroom — and, hopefully, the reader,aswell— on storieswe'd forgotten about from early in 2014. For the last two years, the newsroom has compiled a list of newsmakers and stories to watch in the upcoming year, this year titled"15 to watch in 2015." This project is always fun, because, as the name suggests,itgivesreportersa chance to break open their crystal ball and look at who might make news in the upcoming year. Theseyear-end projectsare notable fortheircommon goal:to celebrate and take notice of the past year and look ahead at the coming year. No doubt, 2014 was a challenging year for The Observer in many aspects, but it was also a highly successful year forthe staffofthisnewspaper.

ANDREW CUTLER The Observer launched an e-edition to givesubscribersanother option for the delivery of their news. We also added a mobile app to go with Go! Magazine. The Observer also became a place where local businesses could turn to have a website built or hosted. All of these ventmes proved to be highly successful for staff and customers alike. The Observer staff also continued its long history of donating volunteer hours, advertising and publicity to support civic groups, such as the La Grande and Island City rotary groups, the La Grande Lions and the Union County Chamber of Commerce, and events like the Eastern Oregon Beer Festival, Celebrate La Grande, the Holiday Music Festival, Wallowa County Arts Festival, Hells Canyon Mule Days, the La Grande Fireworks Celebration, the New Year's Eve Block Party and Ball Drop, the La Grande Sunrise Rotary Club Easter Egg Hunt and the United Way Golf Tournament.

Week of Welcome. With all of the negativity that can often come with working at a newspaper, no matterifit's in the pressroom, the distribution center, the newsroom, advertising or circulation, it would be easy for the staffof this paper to punch the clock, do their work and gohome and leaveallofthecommunity aspects to someone else. But that's not how theychoose to operate. They choose to be visible in the community, to take part to helpmake thisarea abetterplacebecause itis the right thing to do and because they are proud of the aIea theycall home. We remain a viable element in our community, and, despite the rhetoric that spills out of the airwaves and in print media, small-town newspapers are still important and vibrant. We are fortunate, very fortunate I believe, to be owned by a company, Western Communications, that takes its commitment to small-town journalism so seriously. As an editor in this chain, it is gratifying to know that those who are in the decision-making roles believe, as we do, that small-town journalism has a bright future. I hope that trend continues into the future.

Kim Metlen, president of the Joseph BranchTrail Consortium, said the rails with trails from Elgin to Joseph could have a big yearin 2015. OPRD hopes to have a trail feasibility study completed in January 2016. Eastern Oregon University also has a stake in the project. Dana Kurtz, an EOU graduate student, spent the summer doing an existing conditions report and a survey, and classes taughtby professor Steve Clements are doing economic impact assessments. "In the first year, we got a lot ofbackground and inow we) know what's there physically and know a lot of the thoughts of people who live along the trail, both good and bad," Metlen said.ewe found out, in our big meetings, that Elgin is cautiously optimistic, Wallowa has some naysayers and Enterprise is overwhelmingly in favor."

Shelterlooksforhealing,freshstsrt • Shelter From the Storm moving to new location as new year rolls in By Kelly Ducote The Observer

C

oming ofF a turbulent 2014, Shelter From the Storm is ready for a new — and posit ive— chapter. The local nonprofit, which serves victims of sexual assault and domestic violence, is in the midst of a major move from its advocacy center on the county campus to a building in Island City. The past year was a rough one for the organization, beginning in January when stafFmembers learned the shelter would be evicted from the building that has housed the nonprofit since 1998. The eviction is needed in order for the county to construct a new courthouse on the center's footprint, a decision that became ofFicial in March and led to a litigious battle from which the shelter ultimately withdrew this

fall.

Shelter From the Storm has found a new location. Mindy Mowery, interim director of the Shelter From the Storm, said the community has rallied to ensure the shelter's services would continue.

"It has been hard. It has been difficult," said Mindy Mowery, interim director of Shelter From the Storm. The difFiculties, though, have shined a light on the community that rallied to ensure the shelter's services would continue. The nonprofit announced earlier this month that it had found the new location, and since then, many community members have volunteered to help make the transition smooth. "Board and community members are helping out," Mowery said. That's in addition to contractors who

have donatedservicesto renovate the new space. "The contractors are rock stars," Mowery said. Mowery estimates it could take a full month for stafFto unpack, but they hope to be open for clients Monday. "I'm confident we'll be as close to full capacity as we were ion the county campus)," Mowery said. The interim director isn't sure what 2015 will bring to Shelter From the Storm. For the time being, the new locationisconsidered temporary, and it's

unknown when the board of directors may name a new executive director. Mowery is looking forward to getting servicesback up to speed afterthe m ove and reviving theshelter'sfood bank, which closed Oct. 30. She hopes to have that open within 30 days.

sland City's leadership team is about to lose a combined 54 years of experience. Still, do not look for the direction of the city to change dramatically in 2015. Delmer Hanson, who will become the new mayor of Island City in 2015, plans to have the city pursuing the same course it did under Dale De Long, who is stepping down as mayor. De Long served as mayor for 24 yearsbefore deciding notto seek re-election this year. De Long became mayor after serving on the city council for two years. Hanson, a member of the city council for about 10 years, won an uncontested race for mayor on Nov.4. He has high regard for De Long and the job he has done as mayor.

"People can sit down, talk and work through issues." The city council Hanson will oversee as mayor will have two new faces, Don Starr and Stan Terry. Starr was elected to fill Hanson's position on the council in November in an uncon-

tested race for Position 6, and Terry beatincumbent Joyce Beeman in a race for Position 1. Beeman served on the council for 28 years. Projects that the new-look council will be pursuing in 2015include thestartofa major water project. It will be financed by a 2.8 percent

part of the project. The new well and reservoir will be locatedon land adjacent tothe Island City Cemetery. The new well will help Island City meet the water needs of its growing population, Hanson said. Drilling for the well will startsometime in 2015. Hanson said the water project will probably not be completed by the end of 2015. The water project will put Island City's plans to place an overlay over McAlister Road on hold, Hanson said. This is because a portion of McAlister Road will have to be torn up to allow for the installation of improved water pipes.

Kenton will step down as president on June 30, a day beforeatransformative step with enormous potential is completed. EOU will be governed by its own institutional board starting July 1.

the region with an afFtnity and knowledge of the institution can only be a good thing," Kenton said. Kenton will be focusing in 2015 on putting the board in a position to operate at full throttle starting July 1.

Kenton will be helping the boarddevelop bylaws,select a chair and much more in upcoming months. The board will have about 14 members, most of whom have already been selected and confirmed by the Legislature. The establishment of an institutional board is far from the only thing Kenton will be focusing on. He also hopes to begin the constructionofachild care centeron campus and wants to work to bring new businesses to La Grande that will vitalize the downtown area, making the town more attractive to students.

ater, wolves,sage grouse,fertilizer spray — all will be issues facing the Oregon Legislature in 2015. Probably 3,000 bills will be submitted during the course of the session. Already, 42 new tax bills have been submitted, and there will likely be more. Republican Greg Barreto of Cove will be sworn in Jan. 12 and begin the session Feb. 1 as the newly elected House Dist rict58representative.Topping his priority list is increasing jobs in rural Oregon, and he worries that the onslaught of tax bills will erode the business environment in Eastern Oregon. "It will hinder job creation if these tax bills are passed," he said. The Democrats in the House are one vote shy of a super majority, and tax bills, to pass, must have a 3/5 majority vote. 'They still need at least one Republican vote to get a tax bill passed," he said. Barreto has appointments to the following committees: agriculture and natural resources, education, and businessand labor.Heexpectsa big issue in business and labor to be mandatory sick leave, with bills coming in from both the labor side and the business sTde.

Barreto also supportsthe idea to freezepropertytaxes forpeoplewho retire on Social Security and to give tax credits to anyone who donates to an educational institution. He said Idaho has such a plan that limits the donation to $1,000 for an individual or

$2,000for afam ily. "Schools are getting squeezed every year, and I want to give people incentivesto givedonations,"Barreto said."I am big on incentives."

Being on the education committee will be more of a learning curve than the other two committees, Barreto said, but it is a big deal since educationcomprised about 60 percent ofthe state budget in the last biennium. He believes early learning hubs and Common Core will be big issues. Barreto is not unfamiliar with Salem. In fact, he started his business, Barreto Manufacturing, in a garage in Keizer and ran it in that area for seven years before moving the business to Union County in 1986.

School and Island City Elementary School. The work at LMS, LHS and Greenwood will focus on security. Doors will be installed in the many classrooms at these schools that lack them. At Greenwood, two kindergartenclassrooms willbe built. The classrooms will be needed because of the school district's switch to full-day kindergarten in 2015-16. Panike said this will also be a major focus of his attention in 2015. He will not only help address the extra space requirements but also will assist in the arrangement of the furnishings for the new classrooms, oversee curriculum changes and more. "It is a major undertaking," said Panike. Once all bond project work is completed in about three years, kindergarten will be taught at Central, Greenwood and Island City elementary schools.

Churchill a Muslim? Letter reveals fa1Ttily feared he would convert By Douglas Perry The Oregonian

President Barack Obama has struggled throughout his presidency with misconceptionsabout his relationship with Islam. It turns out that Sir Winston Churchill, Great Britain's leader during World War II, had the same problem early in his

long, distinguished political career. "Please don't become convertedto Islam; Ihave noticed in your disposition a tendency to orientalise, Pasha-like tendencies, I really have," Lady Gwendoline Bertie wrote to Churchill in 1907. Bertie would marry Churchill's brother, Jack.

She added in the letter: "If you come into contact with Islam your conversion might be effected with greater ease than you might have supposed ... do fight against it." Cambridge University history fellow Warren Dockterrecentlydiscovered the letter while researching a

book about Churchill. Churchill, who was 32 years old in 1907, had come into contact with Islamic culture while serving in the British Army in the Sudan. He wrote home that he "wished he were [aj Pasha." He made his name at the turn of the century as a soldier and war correspondent

during the Second Boer War, anadventure that included a daring escape from a POW camp in South Africa. In a new book about Churchill, London Mayor Boris Johnson writes that a "spirit of derring-do just pumped through his veins, like some higher-octane fuel

than the one the rest of us run on." Dockter told The Independent newspaper that the letter provides telling insight into Churchill's fascination with Islam, pointing out that for a while he was even partial to wearing Arab clothes in his daily life.

ATLANTA — The flu has officially reached an epidemic threshold, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. At least 15 children have died from flu-related deaths across the country, according to the CDC. A 3-year-old child in Georgia recently died from flu-related complications, according to latest flu report released Wednesday by the Georgia Department of Public Health. In Georgia, there have been of 12 flurelateddeaths thisyear since Oct. 1. Most of the deaths involvedadults65 and older. Last year at this time, there were 8 flu-associated deaths in Georgia. The flu season is in full swing with the flu widespread in Georgia and much of the country. State data suggest flu season may have peaked earlier this year than last. State health department spokeswoman Nancy Nydam said at this time last year, flu activity was low and intensitywas 4ion a scale of1-10, 10 being the highest). This year flu activity is widespread and intensity is 10 — and has been for the past 2-3 weeks. There have been 459 people hospitalized this year in for flu-related illness in metro Atlanta area. One reason forthe bad fl u seasonisthisyear'svaccine isnotconsidered as effective. The dominant flu strain this year — H3N2 — has mutated, and only about half of the cases match the vaccine,

The CDC said flu shots may still offer some protection against drifted viruses, which could help lessen the severity of the symptoms and reduce the risk of complications, such as hospitalization and death. Flu shots also will still protect against flu strains that have not mutated, such as the influenza A iH1N1l virus and the B viruses contained in the vaccine. Since experts must pick which viruses to include in the vaccine several months in advance to produce and deliver thevaccineforthe upcoming flu season, there's always this risk that the circulating viruses will deviate from the ones used for the vaccine.

time to change the vaccine for this flu season. In past years, H3N2 strainshave tended to be more severe, sending more people to the hospital than other strains — and causing more deaths, especially among the elderly, children and people with weakened immune systems. The flu usually takes the highest toll on the very young and the very old. Depending on the season, the flu claims the lives of anywhere between 3,000 and 49,000 people a year in the United States. Even when some circulating virusesare different from the vaccine viruses, the CDC continues to strongly recommend vaccination against the flu. While the vaccine may be less effective against drifted viruses, it can still protect m any people and prevent fl urelated complications. Facing a nasty flu season, getting a vaccinethat provides even partial protection may be more important than ever, according to the CDC.

A lifetime ago, in the snow bound Rocky Mountains, my friends and I began a tradition of fishing New Year's Day. Regardless ofhow early or late we went to bed we would meet up and go fishing Jan. 1st. This tradition carried on briefly after moving to Oregon, then passed away to the place many New Year's traditions end up, namely on the couch watching football. Unwilling to let go of the tradition, especially one involving fishing, I rallied last year. After much boondoggling and a considerable amount of proselytizing I convinced two fiiends to go fishing shortly after New Year's. While said fishing trip took place Jan. 2nd, it was close enough to feel like the old days, requiring a lot of warm clothes, WD40 for spraying on the rod guides and reel to keep things from freezing up, and some major foodgroups,namely leftover Christmas cookies, beef jerky, and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Only what greeted us last year was a forty degree day, a cooler full of steelhead, and a general feeling of unfrozenness. Happily awed at our good fortune, it was by far the fishiest and warmest New Year's fishing trip I'd ever been on. That it involved freshly caught steelhead, and a freshly cooked meal, a bonus. So what's the fishing going to be like Jan 2015? This December's reports on the Grande Ronde and Wallowa Rivers have been mixed, but with the amount of fishing traffic, and fish still moving into the system mixed should be expected. As temperaturesand river levels rose with early December's rain, then dropped toward the end of the month, new ish have worked theirw ay f up river.

A flock of turkeys search for food in a field. By Gary Lewis WesCom News Service

Oregon's fall turkey season takes advantage of the bounty ofbirds on the wet side of the state. The seasonstartsin October and winds up at the end of December.

Individual health information is correlated with community- and national-level data, and participants will be tracked over a 12-year period to see how social, environmental and biological risk factorscontribute to chronic health conditions such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes and cancer.

Basic hygiene like hand washing and not touching dirty surfaces is very important. Germs can be transferred by scratching your nose, touching your face or chewing your nails. Incidentally, Louis Pasteur is quoted as saying on his deathbed: "Bernard was right. The pathogen is nothing, the terrain is everything"

In addition, five of the 18 items tested for sodium content had less ofitatthe end ofthe 18-year period and seven had more. The researchers looked up nutritional information for all of the cheeseburgers, french fiies, grilled chicken sandwiches and nondietsodas sold between 1996 and 2013atthreeleading fast-food chains. The restaurants weren't m entioned by name, butone ofthem was"the top restaurant on the basis of sales" — a designation thatdescribes McDonald's. The other two chains had "similar menu items," a"national presence" and were"in the top 10 for total U.S. sales revenue" — attributes that describe Burger King and Wendy's. iThe researchers, from Tufts' Jean Mayer USDA Human Nutrition Research Cen-

Also, most people can relatively quickly adapt to a change in the beat. Although a person may be able to keep the beat, he may not be able to move to a beat. Dancing to a beat is a much more difficult task that includes multiple motor pathways, coordination and attention to details. As we have all experienced, dancing also may include anxiety that accompanies the dancing experience.

The health care law provides taxpayersubsidizedprivateinsurance to people who don't have access to coverage through their jobs.

Q: Can tone deafness be genetic? A: Another"tone dealness" is called congenital amusia. This is a neurological condition that is present at birth in only 4 percent of the population. These individuals have extremedifficulty perceiving changes in pitch, but because it is rare, it is not likely to be an issue for most of us. If an individual has sensory hearing loss, they can likely receive assistance with hearing devices. Although a hearing aid will not teach a person to keep a beat,itwould allow them toperceive a beat,which isonestep closer to dancing the night away.

Can't sing onkey or dance to a beat?

Feeling hopeless about the Hu B

y now you've read the news this year's flu shot is largely ineffective. The prime viral target mutated and is unaffected by the flu shot. Still,the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other experts urge us to get the shot anyway. News like this can leave one feeling hopeless and vulnerable. Stay tuned.

Why people get sick has been debated throughout medical history. How important is your state ofhealth versus how important is the pathogen? Louis Pasteur argued that disease was caused by the pathogen, that the condition of the terrain was unimportant. Bechamp maintained that the "terrain" or the person's health was more important. Bechamp argued that while a pathogen can be associated with an illness it doesn't always cause it; sometime people are exposed to a pathogen but don't get sick, The presence of germs does not constitute the presence of disease, he maintained. He thought the"terrain" upon which a pathogen landed was more important than the pathogen. Like the farmer's seed, a pathogen needs certain conditions to thrive. These days, conventional medical treatments focus on the pathogen and usually ignore the terrain. Awareness and training in how our bodies stay healthy is seen mostly in "alternative" medical practitioners. I believe both Pasteur and Bechamp made good points and that Bechamp's "terrain" is usually overlooked in the current medical system. If they were alive today, Pasteur might be worried because this year's flu shot is ineffective, but Bechamp might say: "So what, let's get busy making the terrain hostile to invaders." Our world is teeming with microbes. They are on our skin, in our bodies and on everything we touch — everywhere. Our bodies have known this a long time. Some of these microbes are necessaryto life,som e are pathogenic. Our defense mechanisms must know the differenceand aredesigned accordingly. There are daily challenges to our health by viruses, bacteria, fungi, and parasites and we almost always are able to keep them in check. The yearly flu shot SeeWinters / Page 5C

A second study, among pre-K and kindergarten children in four schools in rural Virginia, found that calories, fat, saturated fatand sugar were significantly higher and protein, fiber and calcium were significantly lower in lunches brought from home than in the meals served in school. A third study examined food selection and plate waste by elementary and middle school children in four schools in an urban, low-income school district before and after introduction of the new meal standards. Juliana Cohen and co-authors found no increase in waste and a significantly greater selection and consumption ofvegetablesand fruitsfrom the improved menus.

Q: What is tone deafness? A: When most people use the term"tone dealness," they are referring to sensory hearing loss. This is the most common type of hearing loss that adults experience. This type ofhearing losscan be gradual over many years or it can be sudden with an onset of only a few hours or days. Q: Why can't some people sing on pitch? A: The cochleais the hearing organ. It has microscopic hair cells that move in response to sound and act as a natural amplifier. When these hair cells stop functioning properly, the person will acquire sensory hearing loss and will not hear some of the pitches normally or at all. The hearing loss could be caused by a number of things including noise exposure, genetic factors, chemotherapy, viral illness in the cochlea or strong, life-saving antibiotics. As a hearing loss progresses, itm ay become poor enough that an individual's cochlea has "dead regions." This suggests that the perceptionofsome pitches would be altered, usually the high-pitch tones. In the presence of normal peripheral hearing, when the cochlea is functioning SeeYerges / Page 5C

Regort:4millionactive enrollinhealth glans By Carla K. Johnson The Associated Press

The first 50-state report on the latest sign-up season under President Barack Obama's health care law shows that more than 4 million people selected plans for the first time or re-enrolled in what the administration called "an encouraging start." More than 3.4 million people enrolled using HealthCare.gov as of Dec. 15, and more than 600,000 peopleselected plans in the

state-runmarketplaces,according to a Department of Health and Human Services report released Tuesday. The figures are generally up-todate through Dec. 13. About half of those enrolling are first-timers and half are returning customers, suggestingthere are about 2 million Americans new to the program. The figures look good for the administration meeting its goal of 9.1 million customers signed up and paying premiums in 2015, indepen-

"I really think they need to get to 13 million this year to have a sustainable program, not this low-ball estimate that nobody takes seriously," said Washington, D.C.-based health care consultant Robert Laszewski. cWe don't know how many ofthesepeople are going to pay. And we don't know how many of the existing people aregoingtore-enroll." Young adults still aren't flocking to the program, which could increase costs down the road. About 24

dent experts said. But they predicted the program won't meet another target: the 13 million enrollments forecast by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget 0$ce in 2015. "It would take a massive surge in enrollment over the next six weeks" to reach 13 million, said Larry Levitt of the nonpartisan Kaiser Family Foundation.

Two kinds offish

Making resolutions is one thing. Maintaining them through the year is another. Here are some tips to stay on track through all of 2015: • Focus on one change at a time. Start with the one goal that's most important for you. • • Aim big, start small. Breakyour goal into specific, small, doable steps. •Workwith a buddy. Some people enlist a friend or co-worker to be a coach, cheerleader, sounding board or fellow goal-seeker. • Keep going. Even if you stumble, get up and dust offyourdreams.

BY JOHN CROOK

To the uninitiated, the Cinemax series

"Banshee," which begins i<s third 10-episode season on Friday, Jan. 9, looks as if I< has been written by someone who has spent

several hours pounding back Nyquil shooters. Se< in a small town in Pennsylvania Dutch country, the violent, action-driven

series is highly stylized and deliberately over the <op, boasting among i<s characters an ex-convic< and master thief (An<ony S<arrl

who is passing himself off as the local sheriff, a ruthless Amish businessman (Ulrich Thomsenl embroiled in an incestuous affair with his barely-of-age niece (Lili Simmons) and a cunning transvestite computer hacker who assists his ex-con buddy in his covert crime activity. For all the testosterone, however, "Banshee" also is noteworthy for i<s multi-dimensional main female character,

Carrie Hopewell (Ivana Mili<evicl, wife of Banshee's district attorney (Rus Blackvvelll. What few people in town know is that this seemingly placid soccer mom is the daughter of a psychotic Ukrainian gangster, now deceased, and used <o be engaged in a torrid affair with Lucas Hood, the local faux sheriff. It's a role that calls upon an actress <o handle everything from tender domestic moments with her kids <o sizzling nude love scenes <o brutally physical fight sequences. And M i li<evic is relishing every moment.

'Banshee' goes to the deepest, darkest depths in the name of love "With a show like ours, which is so heightened, you really have <o ground the characters even more (<han usual) <o be able <o pull off the insanity. Otherwise, I< would just be a complete cartoon," the actress says.

"Obviously it's pulpy and noir-ish <o start with, bu< for me I< was easy <o ground her because any character who is after love — and that's what really drives Carrie, love of her family and her old lover — is easy for me <o understand."
